I'm sorry, but such a service can never be properly trusted on a Newbie account. Perhaps, some proof of identification would help you out.

"Imagine a world in which you can buy anything in secret. No banks. No fees. No worries inflation will make today's money worth less tomorrow.
The digital currency Bitcoin promises all these things. And while it's far from achieving any of them -- its value is unstable and it's rarely used** -- some have high hopes."

**CNN lies
"There will be alternatives to the dollar, and this might be one of them," said former U.S. congressman Ron Paul. If people start using bitcoins en masse, "it'll go down in history as the destroyer of the dollar," Paul added.

So is the first quote from from Ron Paul himself?  Also is the second quote by CNN a made up lie called a quote?  I find your post to be confusing.  Maybe I'm just simple but I've got no clue what the point is your trying to make at this time.

No, it's from the article, which is hyperlinked in my post in case you missed it

“I want to tell you one more thing I know about the Negro,”

...“They abort their young children, they put their young men in jail, because they never learned how to pick cotton. And I’ve often wondered, are they better off as slaves, picking cotton and having a family life and doing things, or are they better off under government subsidy? They didn’t get no more freedom. They got less freedom.”

I don't know man, the belief that black people were better off as slaves picking cotton for Bundy's great grandparents as opposed to being under "government subsidy" (which, by the way, is because there is social inequality in America, but that's a different topic), it just doesn't seem the "opposite" of a racist remark. I did listen slowly, I heard the whole damn thing

He's speaking like this, imitating the real racists. Search out law enforcement people speaking, on lots of Youtube video's. This is just the way that they talk about people. Bundy was imitating BLM people and other government people.

No, he was making a statement, and it did not seem sarcastic by nature at all.

A key feature of a Randian hero is rationality. Running a criminal organization and getting caught is not particularly rational, if you ask me. There are plenty of ways to make lots of money without ending up in jail.

Wanna see how they caught him?

I think the feds are bullshittin on that one to prevent lawsuits. Which is really no surprise, because our investigative agencies are always bullshitting

It wouldn't surprise me at all. But I posted so you folks could see it.

Seriously, who would buy their crap about inputting random characters into the captcha to get the IP of a server?

Nope, they violated the Fourth alright, the NSA is always doing it. There can be no doubt the FBI does it too

In addition, the Super Elite who are trying to control the world, need to get all the nations to become democracies, because a democracy is a great way to control the people. Make them think that they have freedom.

Islamic nations are peopled by people who are too stubborn to accept democracy. So, they need to be destroyed. And to effect their destruction, the rest of the world has to be made to hate them.

Smiley

Islamic nations are theocratic. Theocracies are an easier form of government to control the people.

Yet the powerful nations are the ones like Canada, the U.S., the United Kingdom, nations that support freedom for their people. Even Russia moved over to freedom for the people because Communism didn't work. Yet, the freedom these people have is make-believe. Just try not paying income taxes.

Perhaps the Super Elite are testing. If Islam can be promoted in such a way that it overcomes freedom, they just might use Islam. But I think that they have seen that Islam won't cut it.

Theocracies might be a way for governments to more easily control their people. But it is also a way to keep other nations from taking the control away.

You can try not paying taxes, and even succeed, as long as you're white and you got a whole lot of armed redneck buddies

Seems that BLM broke their contract with Bundy first. So, he was operating without a contract. How does that make him liable, after the fact?

Smiley

It doesn't.

But it doesn't make him a national hero either, especially not after his racist remarks, nope.

They weren't racist remarks. Bundy was speaking just the opposite. The reason it sounds racist is because of his particular manner of speaking, and that the media edited the whole content of his speech. Bundy was speaking up for Hispanics. Listen slowly.

my paypal acc was frozen cause i sold bitcoin, why are they having such a sudden change of heart.

Yeah Paypal was terrible for buying Bitcoins, it still is.

And their "virtual goods" policy is rarely enforced outside of bullying cryptocurrency users, for example, most text based RPGs sell "donator packs", a virtual good, through Paypal, and they have thriving businesses. I wish they would sort out this hypocrisy.

During times of economic difficulties, it is easy to critise any political leader. You only need one failure to overshadow many successes. This is my general view on political leaders, not specifically about Obama.

During times of economic difficulties, cut food stamps, raise taxes for the poor and arrest workers striking for a livable wage. That will solve your crisis for sure.

A criminal organization? Silk Road was an example of a Free Market
